Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion \(A\) and the other is labelled as Reason \(R\) Assertion \(A :\) Photodiodes are preferably operated in reverse bias condition for light intensity measurement. Reason \(R\) : The current in the forward bias is more than the current in the reverse bias for a \(p - n\) junction diode. In the light of the above statement, choose the correct answer from the options given below :

1. A \(A\) is false but \(R\) is true
2. B Both \(A\) and \(R\) are true but \(R\) is NOT the correct explanation of \(A\)
3. C \(A\) is true but \(R\) is false
4. D Both \(A\) and \(R\) are true and \(R\) is the correct explanation of \(A\)
